FYI, these guys are all very experienced and have co-founded other PE firms and closed numerous funds in their career so I am not concerned with it being a "new" firm.</p> <p>I love everything about the work environment, the partners, the culture...it seems like my ideal situation. Additionally, I am currently interning at the VC arm of a regional financial services firm (eg IB, Fin Advising, etc.) and definitely not enjoying it quite as much. Thus far it is more like the Army than the entrepreneurial environment I had hoped for.</p> <p><a href="http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/drawbacks-to-mm-and-boutique-style-pe-firms">read more</a></p> http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/drawbacks-to-mm-and-boutique-style-pe-firms#comments http://www.wallstreetoasis.com/crss/node/25732 Private Iniquity Sun, 06 Jul 2008 18:47:09 -0400 cphbravo96 25732 at http://www.wallstreetoasis.com
